N771LJ

This entry documents airframe N771LJ, a 2008-built Cessna 510 Citation Mustang with manufacturer's serial number 510-0139 produced by Cessna Aircraft Company. The airframe is recorded in the US registry and is owned by AMORADA LEASING LLC of Fort Lauderdale, FL, US, a leasing entity that indicates the aircraft is held for commercial lease or charter deployment rather than sole private use. The listing value reported for this airframe is $1,900,000, and available records note typical equipment and upgrade histories consistent with light jet assets of its vintage. No public record of significant registry actions beyond the current leasing ownership was provided in the supplied data.

The specific cabin fit reported for N771LJ is an executive four-passenger club seating arrangement with a forward galley and an aft lavatory as described in sales and lease listings, supporting typical short- to mid-range business missions. Avionics fitted to the airframe are commonly documented as Garmin G1000 / G1000 NXi, with listings noting typical retrofit upgrades consistent with fleet modernization practices. With a cruise speed of 340 kts and a range of 1,167 nm, the aircraft is optimized for single-pilot light business missions, shuttle flights, and leasing pool operations based from its owner’s Fort Lauderdale location. Maintenance considerations for this particular airframe would follow the Citation Mustang program and the PW615F-A engine support network, with oversight typical of lease-managed assets.

The Cessna 510 Citation Mustang occupies the entry-level very light jet niche, offering short-field capability, a high single-pilot utility ceiling of 41,000 ft, and economical operation for up to four passengers. Competing models in its era included other VLJs and light jets that traded range and payload for lower acquisition costs; the reported valuation of $1,900,000 for this 2008 airframe reflects depreciation, avionics upgrades, and leasing-market demand. Buyers and charter operators consider residual value, engine program status, and avionics configuration—here the G1000 / G1000 NXi—when assessing maintenance reserves and resale prospects for an aircraft with serial 510-0139.
